You may be using an external recorder with it for other reasons, though. Your typical mainstream consumer camera won't. Internal or external, doesn't really matter, as long as your gear can do that. Generally speaking, at least 10 bit 4:2:2 or better with decent bitrate, colour space, dynamic range and codec would be ideal, obviously, and to produce decent looking HDR video you'll need all that and more, (not just a camera). No comment on those particular letter combinations in the lack of relevant enough context, and my opinion is that based on your comment, you're probably wasting your time on pointless details. Lookin at the huge DR range difference of human eyes compared to computer LCD/ OLED /OLED HLG, what is your experiance/ opinion. but what is your opinion about:Īnd these on a large OLED Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) screen? One good clip of video will tell you more than several paragraphs of text. Renting a recorder and trying it for yourself is indeed a good idea. On the other hand, if your final goal is just a FB/YT video, the subtle difference in overall quality may not matter all that much. Personally I usually preferred the footage recorded with an Atomos recorder over the footage recorded in-camera when I was using Sony cameras. In short, if you know what you're doing, your end result will probably look slightly better, depending on the content.

Nevertheless, if you've effed up your lights, colour balance or exposure during shooting, and especially if you've chosen to use Log, getting the skin right may not be much easier. Colour correction and matching will be pretty similar, but you'll have slightly more latitude to work with, which means you'll have better looking skin with more colours and better looking gradations in general. If you mean is it easier to get skin tones look 'right' and properly adjusted on the vectorscope, well, not necessarily. I guess I'll just have to rent the thing and see.

Thanks for the reply! What I mean by pulling skins is selecting (or bypassing) the skin for grading in editing, which does wonders for the professional look of your footage. Whether the benefits will outweigh the extra bulk in your case, that's up to you to decide. Although it'll also mean one more piece of gear and a cable to carry around. Whether or not you'll see any significant differences is one thing, but having an external recorder will give you other benefits, too. Try it out in all kinds of different situations and lighting conditions. If you can afford it, get one and do your own experiments. YMMV.Īll in all, it's up to you and your personal preferences and your preferred workflow, and it depends on the kind of work you're doing. The more 'regular' colour profiles may yield more pleasant results, or at least faster. Although personally I'd use the S-LOG 3 (or whichever was the strongest) very sparingly, even with an external recorder. With those the difference is likely to be more visible. Getting an external recorder might make more sense if you plan on using the S-LOG modes most of the time, as shooting S-LOG internally would be less beneficial. An external recorder will only get you a bit more latitude and a different workflow.
In any case, don't expect any codec or external recorder to save you from getting things right in camera.
But within the limitations of the camera. But in general, with an external recorder, bypassing the internal processing of the camera and with higher bitrate, you may get ever so slightly more headroom when grading, and a slightly less compression artefacts to start with, and so on. How much you'll get to play with depends on how you've shot the scene. But the difference may be subtle, again depending on your footage, and the difference may be more visible in clips where there is more movement, for example. I'm not sure what exactly you mean by "pulling skins," but you might get slightly more pleasant tonal balance and more material to work with when doing, say, a green screen separation. Is pulling skins easier for example, can the shadows be lifted more? The A7r2 can deliver up to 100mbps bitrate in 8-bit 4.2.0 XAVC-S long-GOP format, whereas with many external recorders you can get 4.2.2 ProRes or DNxHD codec, which are all-Intra, albeit still 8-bit, at up to 300mbps bitrate. But in certain scenarios it may be more visible.
That doesn't automatically mean clearly better looking footage, and the difference may be subtle, depending on your footage.

The main benefit of an external recorder used with a camera like the A7 series is the opportunity to bypass the internal codec/processing of the camera, and get a "thicker" more edit-friendly signal on the external recorder.

Hey folks, do any of you have experience with using external recorders for the A7RII (or I guess the A7sII)? Aside from the screen and Prores codecs which don't eat your pc alive, is there actually more information in the files to grade with?
